The Bridge

In bar 13, we find a four bar bridge:

This bridge is a variation of the theme. Let's listen again to our original woodwind theme:

Now let's listen to the melody in the bridge:

By comparing both sections, you can see how similar they are.

You can see that the first bar of the bridge is identical to the first bar of the melody - it just plays a 4th higher. The second bar of each section starts on the same relative note, but they differ in beats 3 and 4.
